ANNUAL STAFF F A C U L T Y H. C. DAVIS N. T. HABURCHAK Each Annual Staff tries to do a better job than the one before. I am sure that the 1954 “Wolf” will be a veritable treasure-house of happy memories for all. As the Class of 1954 rounds out its twelve years of education, we look forward to its success in the years ahead. Best wishes, H. C. Davis, Superintendent. There is but one straight road to success, and that is merit. The man who is successful is one who is useful. Capacity never lacks opportunity. It cannot remain undiscovered, because it is sought by too many anxious to use it. N. T. Haburchak, Principal.

They were about to show us the previews of our future when one of the tubes burned out and we went rushing back into time. What’s this? LARRY FLEMING and ROY HARTFORD fighting one-eyed giants? They must have just returned from the Battle of Troy after losing the hand of MARGIE of Troy. The scene changed to Rome. Here we saw two friends. Friends? MERLIN HUNTER Caesar and Brutus NORMAN were turning upon each other. Can this be? MERLIN the magician DRISKELL must have cast this foul jinx upon them. PURNEE WERNER, we discovered, was Cleopatra’s greatest rival for the love of Mark Anthony BEREZAY. We never did find out who won because the picture changed. Then came Salomi (better known as TOOTIE) with her seven veils. She was about to do her famous dance, that had swept the country, for King Herod SCHAEFER. We also noticed that Delilah BOLTON has taken after her dad. She just finished trimming Sampson SPARKS’s hair. As we entered King Arthur’s court, who should we see but BILL KING sitting at the head of the round table. He had just sent Sir DON Galahad PERRY out in search of the Holy Grail. Sir Lancelot NEWMAN was galloping up the road on his trusty steed when who should be standing in the road in front of him but BARB B„ the Lady of the Lake. We heard a crash in Sherwood Forest just then and we came upon Robin Hood GLENN and Little JACK fighting on the bridge. Little JACK had just pushed Robin into the water and the Lady DONNA came rushing to see what was happening. Suddenly an arrow went whizzing through the air. LES William Tell DAVIS had tried to hit an apple on LE ANN BRUDER’s head. Someone must have steady nerves! The scenes changed rapidly and next we saw the art gallery of GEORGE KAWANISHI De Vinci. The beautiful Mona Lisa ZIMMERMAN was his model. Amid the splashing of waves and booms of guns we witnessed a great battle between the famous pirates, Blackbeard McNUTT and Henry Morgan DeZORT. They were fighting over the hand of Lady SCARBOROUGH. Double, double, boil and bubble! For a minute I thought we were back in lunior English, but instead we were about to witness the great play, “Macbeth,” written by DALE Shakespeare and starring the great DIANE HUNTER as the Lady Macbeth. Sitting in the front row of the theatre was Queen Victoria SCHWINGEL. Guess what we saw next! A foreign visitor came into the auditorium. It was Marie Antoinette HART. It seems that the two women were rivaling fashion plates. Standing outside of the theatre was Lady C'ROFFORD. The gallant Sir NILE Raleigh (better known as Walter) had just rushed to her aid and was helping her across the street. Just then we caught a glimpse of SIDNEY Napoleon LOGAN and his wife Josephine RONNIE ROPER. They were bending over a map, still trying to figure out how he met his Waterloo. Could it have been that World History Class? The year 1492 then came into view. Ferdinand (MYRON) and Isabella (MARGARET) just sent ERIK Columbus off to search for a new route to India. (Somebody goofed.) What happened next really was hysterical. It seems that PAT de Leon was still searching for the Fountain of Youth. I think he was searching in the wrong place, though, because we came upon King CORKY Solomon and his harem at that time. Maybe it wasn’t the wrong place after all. Some of the girls we recognized in the harem were KAREN O’LEYAR, LOIS COTTENGIM, RUTH GROSSER, RITA ENNEBERG. and SHARON HANSON. They didn’t see us. as they were too busy playing their favorite song, “Hootchy Kootchy BURY,” on their lyres. The song was written by ADA VANCE. We next looked in on a family argument. Ann Boleyn WARD and her daughter, the future Queen Elizabeth JOHNSTON, were fighting over the dinner that was to be served to King BEEF' the VIII. Our time machine was rapidly moving up to the present time but just before we reached the year 1970 again, we came upon SHARON STEF1LE Nightengale. (Always knew sne wanted to be a nurse.) DELBERT of GARBFJR was her first and last patient. Any similarity to real persons or places in history is absolutely intentional. ( 17 Class Will We, the Class of ’54, As we pass on through the door Feeling rich and well-to-do, Leave our best to all of you. I.

Under the leadership of Nile Aubrey, President: Betty Johnston, Vice President; Les Davis, Secretary-Treasurer and Carl Wert. Reporter, we managed to live through the tribulations of our Initiation. The boys came to school with their pants rolled up to their knees and a green ribbon adorning their hair, while the girls wore short skirts, one high heeled shoe and one flat shoe, one nylon and one man's stocking, their hair in curlers, cold cream on their faces, and a green ribbon in their hair. Following the Initiation, we sponsored the Annual Freshman Return Dance. Still green, but growing, we had our revenge as Sophomores. Our officers that year were President Jack McDonald. Vice President Jim Sparks. Secretary-Treasurer Merlin Hunter, and Reporter Betty Lou Sherman. We made sure the class of '55 was brought into CBHS in the usual style. After they were initiated they gave a dance for us. In March, the class of '54 had a good representation on the choir trip to the East. Upperclassmen at last! This, our Junior year, we elected Jim Sparks as President. Ray Berezay as Vice President, Barbara Schwingel as Secretary-Treasurer, and Jim Newman as Reporter. Under the guidance of these able officers and the direction of Mr. Speich. we gave the play. My Wife's Family. The play was the biggest success ever held at CBHS. Dancing under the stars to the strains of Blue Hawaii. as played by the Paul Dube Trio, our Prom was held on May 8th and was another successful milestone in our travels through Cut Bank High School. Our final year in CBHS brought about many drastic changes. With Dale Beland as Editor of the Live Wire, we put out a larger and better paper. Our Senior year found Ray Berezay as President. Karen O'Leyar as Vice President, Bev Hart as Secretary-Treasurer, and George Kawanishi as Reporter. Student Council President Myron Siebrecht inaugurated the first annual Homecoming at CBHS. Margaret Siebrecht was the first Homecoming Queen. “Great Caesar's Ghost was presented December 9th and was an even greater success than our Junior Play. -Silver Beils was the theme of our Senior Ball, over which Bev Hart and Nile Aubrey reigned. As our final triumph, we of the class of '54 will march down the aisles to the strains of “Pomp and Circumstance. wearing brand new caps and gowns. It has been a very full and successful four years and none of us wifi forget CBHS. “Best in the West.

They organized in September of 1953. Betty Johnston’s report on Columbus, Ohio, was also a major activity of that month. On October 24th the District meeting was held in the Anna Jeffries School here in Cut Bank. Girls and advisors from Conrad, Valier, Shelby, Browning, and Cut Bank attended. In November the FHA girls made nut cups for hospital trays and served at Open House. Their first opportunity to make money came in December. They had a holly sale and it was a big success. Also in December, the girls presented a one-act play for the Christmas assembly, entitled “Muggsy’s Merry Christmas.” The Future Homemakers of America in Cut Bank started the new year off with a bang. They had a vacation because of semester tests. On February 17th, thirty-two girls were initiated into the Theta Epsilon Chapter. Their bake sale that month increased their funds. March was a busy month for all of the girls. They had a candy sale on the 26th, and on the 30th four representatives went to Missoula for the State convention. They were Mary Ann Arras, Sharon Boe, Mary Lou Brown, and Gayla Lagrand. Mary Ann and Sharon sang in the All-Chapter Chorus, while Mary Lou and Gayla were voting delegates. Back from Missoula, the representatives gave reports on the activities of the convention. Mother’s Night was also held in April. The only major activity in May was the election and installation of new officers, thus ending another successful year.
